All she could hear was her heartbeat and Pat Benatar warning her - Heartbreaker... love taker.

Finally he said, "You're not scared of me, are you, Victoria?"

"Scared?" she said, too loud, as if she were some parrot who could only mimic words. She shrugged, wishing she could say, No, I'm not scared of you. I'm scared of these feelings.

"Don't be scared." And he gave her that slow smile, the one she'd first seen at mini golf the night she'd celebrated her thirteenth birthday.

My birthday is coming! =)

Kay I know it's a long way away but STILL. That once-in-a-lifetime date is looming! And you know what I really want for my birthday? Yepp, you know. I know you know because I've probably mentioned it before and really, I only want that. Yeah that. That that that! That.

I'm not making much sense, I know. But I really want that. That would be the best present ever because it would mean that you have actually listened to me. But I doubt anyone would give me that. Not now, anyway. But they're gorgeous and I want nothing but that.

Reallyy.

Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days.
